This is a bit depressing.

This underlying problem needs to become a priority. Either pressuring #github to go free software or getting free software to go elsewhere.

Github becoming synonymous with open source just muddies free software waters more.

Free Software needs free tools.

@satchmoz Maybe i misunderstand. We all want free software, but service costs money. What github software is commercial? I can’t run a source control system as reliably and inexpensively as they can. It’s a waste of scarce resources to spend them on undifferentiated heavy lifting. Which bit of github is so offensively commercial?

satchmoz @satchmoz@mastodon.sdf.org

@paco its not that their commercial its that their closed/proprietary.

@satchmoz In what sense is it closed or proprietary? I didn’t realise they had incompatible APIs or something that you could only access by paying.
